like new jersey that doesn't have marriage equality coming to new york to celebrate and legalize their union. the core value of marriage is two people who love each other and who are committed to each other. it isn't necessarily defined by gender. opposite sex marriages often are horrific. >> really? what are you talking about? what are you talking about? >> let me show you a copy of the inquirer. people that get married in las vegas overnight and then are fighting and yelling and suing each other and they get divorced. >> sometimes they don't remember they got married. >> that's right. that is not a marriage. that's not what we should sanctify. what we're talking about is civil law. there's a distinction there. and those who love each other and want to protect each other, because one may be older than the spouse and you want security for your spouse for whatever may happen. and our laws do not provide that. we want security for when we should pass or when -- well i can give you an example. we had friends -- it's past tense now -- in washington, d.c. they've been together for over a decade.
